If this is the case, it makes some sense. However, there is only vague reasoning in the commits, so the general public do not and cannot know about this. Being untransparent about why these changes take place will only lead people to think that it is unjustified.

Moreover, if war crime is a reason to not let people be added into the maintainers list of the Linux kernel, will it apply to all war crimes? Do you think Linux Foundation SHOULD also be committed to checking the list for any potential violation because of war crimes that is happening elsewhere, for example, the ones committed by the Israel government in Gaza? Do you think that it would be unethical if the Linux Foundation does NOT do that check for other war crimes?
